Vibration measurement and spectral analysis of chassis frame mounted structur...Dr.Vikas Deulgaonkar
Chassis mounted structure is a base component for shelters or containers mounted on heavy transport vehicles. When the vehicle is driven in rough terrains or during off-road transportation this structure has a significant role in protecting the sophisticated cargo and intelligent tracking systems placed inside the shelters. During off-road transportation or warhead conditions the vehicle is subjected to large unevenness in load due to road or soil irregularities in rough terrains, which causes vibrations to be induced in the vehicle. As the nature of vibrations induced in vehicle during travel on off-road or cross-country terrains is random and unpredictable, there is a concern to analyse the vibration response of chassis and chassis mounted structures is needed. Present work deals with vibration measurement and spectral analysis of a chassis mounted structure designed for off-road and commercial transport vehicles. The road profile on which the vibration measurement has been carried out includes paved road and cross-country terrain segments. The vibration measurement has been carried at three different vehicle speeds. Signal analysis procedure for the acquired test data is discussed. The chassis mounted structure under concern is intended to hold two shelters or containers. From the vibration measurement at critical locations, g-(RMS) and g-(peak) values for paved and cross-country roads have been found out. Power spectral density values have also been found on chassis and structure for the same transport situations. Major inferences include the evaluation of minimum and maximum g-values (peak & RMS) on chassis and chassis mounted structure. Power spectral density graphs are constructed from which the dominant frequency for both road profiles is found out

Vehicle and human vibration due to road condition - ROADEX IVJohan Granlund
This present ROADEX IV follow-up report describes results from demonstration projects in Scotland, Finland, Norway and Sweden over the period 2010 to 2012, where the case study from the Beaver Road 331 in ROADEX III has been reproduced. This document also reports on a study of the influence of road maintenance standard on truck ride vibration and vehicle internal noise, with special focus on winter road condition. Furthermore it reports on a study on vibration isolation from road to truck driver’s seat, by use of a Tyre Pressure Control System (TPCS). All measurements were carried out in the period 2010 - 2012.
A high repeatability between similar truck round trips was confirmed when using the ROADEX method to assess truck drivers’ daily vibration exposure A(8). Results from measurements of truck ride quality during the demonstrations included:
* Unacceptably high levels of driver´s daily vibration dose A(8) were recorded in all of the ROADEX Partner areas (the Norwegian E6-measurements were lower than the others but still at about the EU Action Value).
* Significant compression stress in the truck drivers spine were recorded at severe road damages, such as sharp frost heaves, settlements at bridges and culverts, improper
road/bridge joints and uneven transversal joints at both old and new asphalt repairs.
* In all Partner areas, intense truck roll vibration and lateral buffeting was recorded. This confirmed a special health and safety problem in the EU Northern Periphery (NP) cold
climates.
* The pavement condition parameter RBCSV (a “truck roll vibration indicator”) was further validated in addition to the previous ROADEX III study in Sweden. At sites with very high RBCSV, there is a risk that cargo latches might break due to high lateral acceleration.
* Winter conditions in the NP can result in significant corrugations in thick ice covering nonsalted roads, and extremely uneven frost heaves. The project results show that these conditions can make the ride vibration and noise much worse than during summer conditions.
* The use of a Tyre Pressure Control System (TPCS) has previously been shown to reduce ride vibration. The present study used a more detailed analysis to quantify the TPCS vibration isolating effect. Results from Scotland and Sweden show that TPCS was very efficient in isolating “shake” vibration from short wave road roughness (megatexture < 0.5 m) such as potholes and corrugated ice surfaces.
* Vehicle body “bounce” vibration with lower frequencies (1 – 3 Hz) were not isolated by the TPCS. Such low frequency bounce vibration can only be reduced by pavement maintenance.
* High side friction demand due to improperly banked horizontal curves was found to be a contributing factor behind many loss-of-control crashes, including rollovers.
* Several curves with tragic crash records were found to be improperly banked despite being newly resurfaced.

Safer Curves On Multiple Lane Roads GranlundJohan Granlund
Many road users have crashed at high speed in sharp curves during slippery road conditions. To reduce the skid risk following high lateral forces, outercurves are banked into superelevation. Road designers are guided by design codes into what superelevation values to select among, given a reference speed and curve radius. Curve design codes are based on analysis of cornering forces acting on AASHO’s point-mass model of a vehicle. While the design codes typically yield curves with acceptable safety level, there is a systematic problem with skid accidents on multiple lane curves. This paper discusses a causal factor and recommends changes in curve design codes as well as actions to improve safety in existing unsafe curves. Current road design practise approximates the vehicle travelled path (and thus lateral force) by the road curvature, which is reasonable on small roads. On multiple lane roads however, many drivers are changing lane also in sharp curves since no oncoming traffic is present. When shifting lane quickly, the vehicle experience a transient “curve radius” much sharper than indicated by the road curve radius. This can yield higher lateral force than the road design code have considered. Then the superelevation may be insufficient - when the road is slippery - to outbalance the cornering force. As a rule by thumb, sharp curves on multiple lane roads with high speed traffic should have maximum allowed cross slope in order to increase stability.
The document discusses various aspects of vertical alignment in transportation infrastructure design and construction.

The document also includes examples of previous questions asked on these topics in civil engineering examinations.
This document discusses curves used in construction. It begins by stating the learning objectives, which are to explain concepts of curves, identify terminology, differentiate between circular, transition, and vertical curves, explain setting out methods, and calculate setting out of different curve types. It then provides brief descriptions of different curve types - circular curves have constant radius, transition curves connect straight lines of different slopes, and vertical curves connect horizontal alignments of different elevations. The document further explains purposes, geometries, and setting out methods for horizontal, vertical, and transition curves. It concludes by discussing types of circular curves that can have single, changing, or double radii.
Hvtt13 granlund et al lowered crash risk with banked curves designed for heav...Johan Granlund
Outer-curves are banked into superelevation in order to reduce the crash risk due to high demand for side friction between tyres and road. Road design codes use analysis of cornering forces acting on a point-mass model of a vehicle, where the Centre-of-Gravity (CoG) is assumed to be located at the tyre footprint. This may be relevant for low passenger cars. The scope here was to investigate the need for superelevation for heavy goods vehicles (HGV) with high CoG. The study used a vehicle model including both vertical and lateral position of CoG, as well as road split friction under left/right wheels. The results showed that superelevation demand increases with height and lateral displacement of CoG, and peaks when the curve is more slippery under outer wheels than under inner wheels. A conclusion was that the traditional point-mass “car model” can underestimate the superelevation needed for safe HGV operations. The paper recommends some improvements in road design codes for new curves, as well as some actions to improve safety in existing curves.
This document discusses the design of vertical alignment for roads. It defines vertical alignment as the vertical aspect of the road profile, including crest and sag curves. The two basic elements are grades and vertical curves. Grades refer to the rate of rise or fall, while vertical curves provide transitions between sloped roadways and allow gradual elevation changes.
